Three months after Eritrean asylum seeker Haftom Zarhum was killed in Beersheba’s bus station by a Bedouin security guard, members of Israel’s security services, and a Jewish mob – all of whom allegedly mistook him for a terrorist – newly-obtained security camera footage shows Zarhum lay critically wounded on the floor and gasping for breath for 18 minutes without being helped by Magen David Adom, Israel’s version of the Red Cross, even though Magen David Adom was at the scene 10 minutes before Zarhum was shot and beaten.

"…The first inclination of many observers is to label young people who seek out nativist causes like ISIS or the Hilltop Youth as “crazy,” “lunatics,” or “hormone-laden kids.” But behind this perceived lunacy is a certain philosophy, or a general tendency, that we can trace back to leaders who either taught fundamentalist and nativist philosophies or whose teachings have been interpreted to support violence and terror. One such leader affiliates with the Chabad movement in Israel. His name is Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh, and many Hilltop Youth attended the yeshiva Od Yosef Chai [which he founded and] where he serves as president…”

Over the last three years, police have opened a total of 1,562 investigations into right-wing price-tag hate crime attacks. But only 287 indictments – under 18% – have been filed in those cases. Almost 40% of those cases – 566 – were closed because police supposedly could not solve them. 275 others were closed due to “insufficient evidence.” And most tellingly, 105 of these Jewish hate crime cases were closed because of a lack of “public interest.” That supposed lack of interest is determined by police and prosecutors and is not subject to any reliable third party review.

An 18-year-old Jewish alleged extremist from Ma’aleh Adumim, a moderate West Bank Jewish settlement just outside Jerusalem, was released to house arrest from from administrative detention, where he was held by the Shin Bet in connection with a church hate crime arson. Two minors confessed to the crime several days ago.

A Zionist Orthodox IDF soldier, Corporal Elad Sela, was sentenced to three years and nine months in prison yesterday for leaking classified IDF operational plans to extremist West Bank Jewish settlers.

The five were also indicted for the hate crime attempted arson of a Palestinian taxi in the West Bank village of Yasuf, setting fire to a grain silo in the West Bank village of Akraba, two instances of tire-slashing in the Jerusalem Arab neighborhood of Beit Safafa, an assault on a Palestinian shepherd near the West Bank settlement of Kochav Hashahar, and even more acts of violence against Palestinians.

After the arson-murders, Ben-Uliel and his wife and 1-year-old daughter reportedly moved to Jerusalem and became, so they told friends, followers of Rabbi Eliezer Berland’s Breslov hasidic movement, Shuvu Banim. Berland has been on a more than two-year flight from justice, running from country to country to avoid deportation and extradition to Israel, where he is wanted for questioning in the rapes and sexual abuse of several young female followers, most of whom were married at the time of their alleged assault, and at least one of whom was a minor at the time the alleged sex assault took place.

The soldier is seen on a video from the wedding celebrating the arson-murder of a West Bank Palestinian baby and the baby’s sleeping parents. Revelers danced to Dov Shurin’s racist song Zochreini Na and waved machine guns, knives and a mock Molotov cocktail in the air which they lit and used to burn a photo of the murdered baby – but not before they took their turns stabbing and slashing the photo with their knives.

The #2 non-hasidic Ashkenazi haredi rabbinic leader in Israel (and arguably worldwide, as well) Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky told the heads of Israel’s haredi United Hatzolah volunteer ambulance and paramedic organization today that they their organizations should refuse to treat wounded Palestinian terrorists until all non-terrorists have been treated, even if the terrorist is the most seriously injured of all the wounded. And, Kanievsky continued, if that terrorist is in danger of dying from his wounds, United Hatzolah should refuse to treat him and allow him to die rather than save his life.

The primary suspect in the horrific July arson-murders of an 18-month-old West Bank Palestinian baby and his sleeping parents will be charged with murder within five days, prosecutors told an Israeli court today.

An Israeli court ordered the release of a Jewish terror suspect to house arrest yesterday after an investigation cleared him of the infamous Douma (Duma) arson-murders that killed an 18-month-old Palestinian boy and his sleeping parents in July.

The Hilltop Youth aren't just teenage boys with large knitted kippot (skullcaps) and extremely long peyos (sidecurls), they're also those youths' sisters and girlfriends. One of them is the bride at whose wedding the Hilltop Youth danced their notorious dance celebrating the arson-murders of a palestinian baby and his sleeping parents. Here is a profile of those female wannabe terrorists.

Israel's Zionist Orthodox Jews overwhelmingly believe the Douma (Duma) arson-murders of a Palestinian baby and his sleeping parents is being misused to attack the Zionist Orthodox community, and more than a third believe the arson-murders was carried out by Palestinians, not Zionist Orthodox Hilltop Youth settlers.

Dov Shurin singing the racist pro-Jewish-terrorist song he composed, Zochreini Na, in Chabad's main synagogue at 770 Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn, New York on March 21, 2012. Note that Shurin sings the biblical verse his music was composed to with one word changed. The biblical verse talks about killing Philistines, but Shurin sings about killing Palestinians. Zochreini Na is the song that the Hilltop Youth were dancing to as at a wedding they celebrated, with machine guns and knives waved in the air, the arson-murders of a Palestinian baby and his parents in a Jewish terror attack in the West Bank Palestinian village of Douma (Duma).

Of the three alleged Jewish terrorists detained by the Shin Bet in connection with the Douma arson-murders, two of them are sons of mainstream Zionist Orthodox rabbis who are respected in the Zionist Orthodox community. One of the rabbis leads a pre-military Zionist Orthodox Yeshiva course. The other heads a widely known Zionist Orthodox organization.

"…Since the 'wedding of hate' was broadcast, pundits have been labelling the dancers 'JudeoDaesh' [Judeo-ISIS] and apologists have been explaining how they’re basically poor deluded dropouts who found a home on the hilltops and have been radicalized by seeing their friends murdered in Palestinian terror attacks. Both approaches are disingenuous. This is not a freak mutation of Judaism or a symptom of a sociological problem. And while they are a minority on the fringes of both the political and religious spectra, they are still a part of mainstream Israeli society, a natural outcropping of our failure to recognize how the occupation of another nation has ultimately eaten away at out moral values. It’s much too easy to be shocked at these vile creatures from another world. [But] they’re not that far away.…"

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu quickly designated the fire as a terrorist attack, making the church ineligible to draw on insurance but paving the way for government compensation. Two months later, the Israeli Tax Authority declared that the violent event did not qualify as terrorism, and therefore could not receive government funding.

Rabbi Daniel Stavsky told the crowd before the horrific celebration dance took place that the Shin Bet and "Arabs" killed the baby and his parents, who were sleeping in their home in the Palestinian village of Douma (Duma) when firebombs were hurled through its windows. Radical Jewish settlers like those at the wedding did not kill the Palestinian family, Stavsky said, accusing the Shin Bet of intentionally implicating the Kahanists and Hilltop Settler Youth in order to destroy them– the same false claims made by the hard right-wing and Kahanists when Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated by a one of their own.

Israel’s Internal Security Agency, commonly known as the Shin Bet or the Shabak, said today that right-wing Jewish extremists and their supporters are using false claims of Shin Bet torture to distract attention from the reality of a Jewish terror group whose members are drawn from their midst and which seeks to violently overthrow the government and establish in its place a fundamentalist Jewish monarchy that would expel non-Jews from its borders.

Video of right-wing Zionist Orthodox West Bank settler yeshiva students dancing and rejoicing at the arson-murder – allegedly carried out by Jewish settlers – of an 18-month-old Palestinian baby and his parents in the Palestinian village of Douma (Duma) in July. The settlers are seen dancing, waving knives and even a molotov cocktail and machine guns at a wedding.

Hundreds of people, many of them extreme right-wing West Bank Jewish settlers and their sympathizers, including members of Kahanist organizations and several Chabad messianists, rioted in Jerusalem Sunday night to protest what they claim is the torture by Israel’s internal security service (commonly known as the Shabak or the Shin Bet) of three detainees suspected of the arson-murders of three members of a West Bank Palestinian family in July.

Britain’s Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis has recommended Jewish schools in the UK teach Islam as part of a new government-mandated religious studies curriculum which requires religious schools to teach a second religious faith to students much in the way schools in some countries are required to teach students one foreign language.

Ya'alon told Army Radio that the Douma firebomb attack that killed three members of the Dawabsheh family – an 18-month-old baby boy, his mother and his father – and left one child, a 4-year-old boy, still hospitalized, is "clearly a Jewish attack that I am ashamed of.” Israel’s defense establishment can identify the members of group that is behind the attack, Ya'alon, continued, but there is "not enough evidence against them" to indict.

22-year-old Yitzhak Gabbai was sentenced to a total of three years in prison – 24 months for arson, two months for illegal possession of a knife, and 10 months for incitement to violence – for his role in the November 2014 hate crime arson of the Jerusalem Max Rayne Hand-in-Hand Jewish-Arab school.

100,000 signs displaying a picture of the late Lubavitcher Rebbe Menachem Mendel Schneerson alongside the word "messiah" in Arabic would be printed and distributed. The signs, some as large as billboards, also have quotes from Schneerson’s letters that call for world peace to be achieved through observing the biblical commandments for Jews and the 7 Laws for everyone else. Hundreds of these posters have reportedly already been distributed near Arab neighborhoods and at construction sites (many construction workers are Arabs).

An unspecified number of unidentified Jews, apparently all teens, have been arrested for their alleged the West Bank arson attack that killed three members of the Dawabsheh family this summer – including an 18-month-old boy.

Two haredi minors convicted of the kidnapping and gruesome murder. But the 31-year-old ringleader was inexplicably given last minute psychiatric exam that found him not responsible for his actions at the time of the crimes, which were committed almost 18 months ago. "It's all a lie. I'm afraid that the court will eventually get them [all] off the hook. I want [to see] justice in the court. Where's justice? The judges must not accept this,” the murdered boy’s father, said after today’s court session.

The three Sefardi haredim who confessed to kidnapping and murdering 16-year-old Muhammad Abu Khdeir in a gruesome racist revenge attack on July 2, 2014 are – perhaps – about to face penalties for their crimes.

Extremist neo-Kahainist Chabad Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh is slated to be the major speaker at a Yud Tet Kislev (19th day of the Hebrew month of Kislev) event Wednesday in Tel Aviv at the Charles Bronfman Auditorium (Hechal Hatarbut), a city-owned venue and is managed by a city-owned corporation, sparking outrage.

The attacker, an illegal worker from Hebron in the West Bank, fled the scene and successfully eluded a massive police manhunt that involved 250 officers – until he was turned in by several of his friends.

The Bataclan Theater, the site of one of the several coordinated terror attacks Friday in Paris, was owned by a Jewish family until two months ago and had previously been threatened by Islamic terrorists.

"The wicked ones in blood-soaked Europe deserve it for what they did to our people 70 years ago," Lior said of Friday's terror attacks in Paris tonight while speaking at the funeral of Ya'akov Litman and his son Natanel, two West Bank settlers murdered by Palestinian terrorists late last week.

This a breaking story and its moments before Shabbat. It appears several suicide bombers and shooters – likely Islamic terrorists – set off bombs, randomly shot people and took hostages. The attacks, some of which are still ongoing, took place at a large soccer stadium; a theater where an American rock band, Eagles of Death Metal, is playing; and at several restaurants. The hostages were taken at the theater.

"It has nothing to do with the Temple Mount!,” Gerlitzky told his supportive fellow Chabad emissaries. “It has nothing to do with their economic situation and has nothing to with what you hear in the media in Israel or outside Israel. It is has to do with one thing only and that is – the Israeli leadership vacillates, they do not believe and are not confident themselves that Jews are the rightful owners of all of Eretz Yisroel [the biblical Land of Israel] and therefore the Arabs exploit this weakness as an opportunity to pressure more and squeeze out incessant concessions."

The recent wave of Palestinian terrorism is not centralized, the terrorists are not acting on the orders of any terror group or other leader, and the terrorists – almost all young – do what they do "based on feelings of national, economic and personal deprivation” caused by Israel's game-playing with the peace process and its discrimination against Palestinians.

Q: Does Judaism need its own Pope Francis, somebody who can model this faith? Does Islam? A: We need that in every faith and we need it very seriously. In 1942, one of the darkest periods of human history, in Britain Archbishop of Canterbury William Temple and Chief Rabbi of Great Britain Joseph Hertz formed the Council of Christians and Jews. That was a signature gesture at a very crucial period. I think the Dalai Lama today has shown likewise. It is a matter of personal humility and the generosity of your embrace.

The Israel Broadcasting Authority aired the following report on its news broadcast last week. The report claims that the recent wave of Palestinian terror attacks, many of which have targeted haredim, have prompted some haredim to learn how to shoot and learn self defense – even though the stated haredi theology is that haredi Torah study is what protects Israel from harm – not the IDF or the police. That theological claim is the foundation of haredi refusal to serve in the IDF.

"Our holy Torah teaches us that punishing the murderer is the justice and right morals. ‘Whoever sheds human blood, by a human being will his own blood be shed.’ [Genesis 9:6]. The court must not have mercy on the killer, saying that a person has already been killed and there is no point in killing the other [Maimonides Hilkhot Sanhedrin].…When in a war against a cruel enemy, we must take a firm hand against [that enemy]. ‘Don't pity them because they won't pity you [a quote from Rashi’s commentary].’”

The campaign – which is reportedly being funded and organized by the Satmar hasidic sect which largely makes up the membership of Torah True Jews – is meant to tell potential Palestinian terrorists that they should not murder haredim because haredim are anti-Zionist and do not visit the Temple Mount.

Failed messiah was established and run in 2004 by Mr. Shmarya (Scott)Rosenberg. The site was acquired by Diversified Holdings, Feb 2016. .We thank Mr. Rosenberg for his efforts on behalf of the Jewish Community.
